Discovering LA CANDELARIA in BOGOTÁ, COLOMBIA with a LOCAL!

[@Anyone553]

I was in Bogotá in September and I stayed in the same location LA Candelaria!!! I would love to go back again! Beautiful people!

[@SammyandTommy]

That's awesome! We had a great time there, thanks for watching!

[@josecardona6332]

Regresa y vas a Villa de Leyva

[@elenamayard9571]

Love love love seeing all the art work and indigenous tributes it’s beautiful!!

[@SammyandTommy]

We couldn't agree more! It's absolutely breathtaking! Thanks for the love 💜

[@gabrieltaieb6164]

There are many places well worth discovering in this part of the city. La candelaria es fantástica.

[@SammyandTommy]

It really is 🤗

[@pedroprada1]

You should talk to the Colombia ministry of tourism to make your videos available to the public... they really are top notch... a lot of people will go to Colombia with your videos... please make sure to stay safe and :DO NOT GIVE PAPAYA (ask locals what this means)....

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks for making our day 🥰 We wish we could work something out with the tourism board. Would be very beneficial for both parties! We always give papaya with our equipment no way around it 😂 Just need to be more aware. Thanks for all the love 🙏

[@pedroprada1]

@@SammyandTommy just don't use gold look alike gold jewelry or go around with fancy watches, bags, iphones.. and keep wallet in front hard to reach pockets and don't carry too many credit cards or cash or passport.. it's been a long time since I lived there but you need yo be aware of your surroundings... This happens in most large cities... even in Europe

[@transikk]

@@pedroprada1orry but its very unlikely that someone will kidnap you from the busy street in downtown and hold for days on end to extort every single euro from you bank in europe.its more pickpocket stuff.

I’ve watched a lot of youtubers’ vids of Colombia & specifically Bogota…. This has been the most informative and enjoyable. Gracias for the walk around and having the local guide, the best 👍🏼🇦🇺

[@2Travelis2Live]

Great video! Your guide was awesome. I feel like I learned so much about Bogota, Colombia an it's history. As always, your videos are top notch.

[@SammyandTommy]

Glad you enjoyed it! Ale was amazing! So fun and knowledgeable. She really makes the video. Thanks for watching friend 🤗

[@gilbertonavarro7343]

Proud to be Rola ♥(Bogotan) Thank you guys for sharing a bit of my amazing city ♥

[@SammyandTommy]

Our pleasure and you should be proud! We are having a fantastic time in your city! Thanks for tuning in 🤗

[@RGcorbett]

Rola.... es que se llaman Colombians si son de Bogota?? Por que el nombre Rola??

[@RoxyArietis]

@@RGcorbett Si, rolo o rola dependiendo del género c: y basicamente era una forma despectiva que los españoles usaban en la epoca colonial para los nacidos en la zona de Bogotá por la manera "rara" en la que se pronunciaba la letra r, que con los años evolucionó y todos nos llaman así,

[@Bryanvcarbino]

Good video of bogota. I went there last year. Love bogota and the surrounding mountains. You two seem down to earth Great job both of you

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks so much Bryan! We had an amazing time in Bogota as well! Thanks for the kind words 🙏

[@roelcabe]

Absolutely amazing work, your videos really portrait the Colombian Culture, your energy and open mind to learn about the culture makes your work more than exceptional. Felicidades ❤️❤️

[@arodriguez167]

I born in Bogota but sence I'm 12 I live over seas. I love every time I go visit, love everything there specially the people and the food it's amazing.

[@hisnameisvu]

"I'll have what Sammy's having" I too am not an avid coffee drinker but that drink you had Sammy sounded so good.. another fantastic video my friends, Colombia looks incredible, I guess it's on my go to place to visit now.. thank you 😊

[@SammyandTommy]

That drink would be perfect for you then! Thanks for the awesome feedback Vu! We are having a great time and you must visit!

Another amazing video. Best Bogota vlogs on YT without a doubt and your guide was fascinating, so much cool information shared.

Thanks for such a wonderful compliment ☺️ Ale was amazing and so knowledgeable. It was such a great tour! Thanks for all the love 🤗

[@germansalazar5480]

Great video of Bogota …!!! The guide is so professional and full of knowledge …!!! I wonder why you didn’t go to see the presidential palace with all its gardens and the astronomical observatory,( they are just behind the congress building ) .

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks! Ale was such a wonderful guide! We will have to check that out on our next trip! Thanks for watching!

[@ivanhoo25]

Buenas!!! I’m so thrilled to see you guys enjoying my home country, ColOmbia!!! Hope you can go to Theatron, the biggest dance club I have ever been to… and I’ve been to 52 countries 😜😊😬 A disfrutar pues!!!

[@SammyandTommy]

Buenas 👋 We are thrilled to be here! 52 countries way to go! Still trying to catch you. Thanks for the suggestion but these gringos can't dance 😂

[@ivanhoo25]

Jajaja (aka LOL) no worries! Are you planning to go on day trips from Bogota? Catedral de Sal (Salt Cathedral) de Zipaquira is a fun day trip. Another option is staying one night at Villa de Leyva. It is a beautiful colonial town 3-4 hours from Bogota. I wish I had the passion/talent and time to make videos of the countries I’ve been to! A continuar disfrutando de mi amada Bogotá!! Saludos!

[@jenontherunn]

This is so great! I was just in Bogota in February and wish I had seen this video beforehand. I can't wait to go back!

[@SammyandTommy]

Really appreciate it! We can’t wait to go back either!

La Candelaria is so special and amazing

[@a1droneshots]

Awesome videography, you bring the best spots in every location. Your guide was awesome too, she knows her history. Thank you!

[@HoustonGuy]

LA CANDELARIA in BOGOTA is amazing!!! It's sad that you're long gone from Colombia because your videos are unique in presentation and I want more!!! Also, I noticed y'all didn't go to COLOMBIA's Caribbean coast...Cartagena/Rosario Islands, Santa Marta/Tayrona Park and San Andres are historic and beautiful. Thank you for show casing beautiful COLOMBIA!!!

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks for the awesome comment 🤗 we really loved our time there! We have to leave some places to return to next trip!

I can't believe how similar the city center of Bogota is with São Paulo, except for Candelaria 😊😊... Really interesting this roasted cocoa "coffee", it looks awesome.. Amazing city 🥳🥳

Make sure to not miss "Andres Carne de Res" for late dinner (Original location in Chia- a bit far) but they have a second location in Zona T in Bogota Calle 82. it will also be a unique experience... the ambience, music, decoration, food is just amazing... make sure you arrange your uber after finished...

Beautiful video... I was really hoping you would make it to the Salt Cathedral in Zipaquira this weekend via the tourist train this weekend as they don't offer it every day... Looks like tomorrow Monday 17th is a national holiday... so hope you can do it tomorrow ...

[@SammyandTommy]

We really want to still do this train ride but it might have to be later in our travels. We are gonna stay in Colombia for a while so we will come back to it in a later videos 🤞 We wouldn’t of found this without you so thank you!

@@SammyandTommy if you go on train try to go to Zipaquira (IF THERE IS TIME -as the Salt Catethral will take time). I understand that the train stops in Cajica... make sure to get "Queso de hoja" and "Cuajada con Melao" and Ice cream....

Hey! love the video! How did you guys narrow down where you would stay in bogota before you went? Did you know people in Bogota or did you just go after finding an airbnb there? Do you have your tourists contact information because I would love to use that tourist when I get there.

It has been great! It always shows rain on the forecast but then only rains for about an hour in the afternoon most days. We haven’t been rained out of anything yet! We are currently in Medellin!

I remember in 2013 and 2014 rained at 1pm in Bogota. You could set your watch by it.

Thanks for the warm welcome and great suggestion Jorge!

Great videos! I'd love to know if you found the daily vlogging challenge has significantly improved your sub count / watch time and I'm also curious to know if you were allowed to fly a drone in Bogota and how you went about that? I'm going in a few weeks and very much looking forward to my trip and to getting some nice shots. Have a wonderful week!

[@Tom-ri8ws]

Only 6 days left before I fly to bogota. Any last words of advice from the veteran travelers? Should I only carry pesos or do they sometimes accept USD 💵?

[@SammyandTommy]

Hi! We ran into only pesos and cash is king for sure . Try all the different yummy fruits and the delicious coffee! Have so much fun! We loved Colombia 💞
